With a cigarette in bed, a man in an apartment on Werndlgasse in Vienna-Floridsdorf is said to have set fire to the mattress on Friday afternoon. The victim (72) died in the flames in the tragic event. The fire itself was quickly extinguished by the Viennese professional fire brigade.
It’s a terrible idea: the man (72) must have smoked in bed around 3:30 p.m. on Friday and set the mattress on fire. When they tried to take them to the balcony, the porch also caught fire. This is reported by the Viennese professional fire brigade, which was alerted because of a fire on a balcony.
Victim has been transferred to ambulance
On arrival, the first team of firefighters climbed into the apartment with a rotating ladder via the balcony and found the man lifeless. The victim was handed over to the Viennese professional rescue service, which could only determine death. The fire itself was soon extinguished.
